Well, I used to know them. They broke up because he was sleeping with me. Unlike Angelina, I do not have a problem sleeping with a married man... At least, not when that married man is Brad Pitt. Once I realized that he was interested in Angelina, I stopped speaking to him... I didn't want him to give me whatever funk he gets from her.

I met them through my cousin when I was out in Cali a couple years ago.

:)

This really makes me sick to my stomach -- I can't handle it! I personally think that Brad it an a-whole for doing this! what a slap in jennifer's face

Don't forget Halle Berry. Even the most beautiful women in the world can be cheated on by a man.

And Angelina does?? Sure, she's already got kids--there's more than one, isn't there?--but that doesn't make her Mother of the Year. But I guess there is an upside to that, 'cause at least she's the only mom who won't even have to dress up for the kids' Halloween parties. :p

What dzrose was saying about the "homewrecker" thing...I took it as only half-serious, but I really do agree that this whole thing has made me respect Angelina a little less, fair or not. And I didn't really respect her that much before, as I always thought she was really, really weird. I do blame Brad as well, though...he seems like he really could be an a$$hole, and I know nobody was twisting his arm to leave Jen. Incidentally, I don't really see it as "oh, poor Jenifer Anniston"--after all, maybe she got the better end of the deal. Good riddance and all that?

Saying she's a home wrecker is one thing, but she appears to be a wonderful mother.
She opened her arms to two adoptive children and she obviously dotes on them.

It seems that Jennifer didn't know beforehand after all: here.

"Rep: Aniston Wasn't Alerted to Pregnancy

NEW YORK - Brad Pitt did not call Jennifer Aniston to tell her about girlfriend Angelina Jolie's pregnancy announcement, entertainment TV show "Extra" reported Thursday.

Aniston's publicist, Stephen Huvane, cleared up reports that Pitt and former wife Aniston spoke before the announcement on Wednesday.

"All the reports about phone calls between Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are all made-up lies," Huvane told "Extra."

Pitt's publicist, Cindy Guagenti, confirmed on Wednesday that Jolie, 30, is expecting a baby this summer with Pitt. Jolie, a goodwill ambassador for the U.N., leaked the news to a charity aid worker while filming "The Good Shepherd" in the Dominican Republic.

Pitt, 42, has also filed to be the adoptive father to Jolie's children, Maddox and Zahara.

Pitt and Aniston, 36, divorced last October after 4 1/2 years of marriage, citing irreconcilable differences. Pitt has denied Jolie was behind the split."

Sure she is...now. I'm just afraid that this is going to be like her relationships--something she's really super into for a while, and then it's over. She's adopted two kids, I think, and the magazines were quoting her as saying she couldn't wait to adopt again as quickly as she could. That was before she announced she was pregnant. I am well aware that my personal opinion of her is coloring my perception, and for the sake of the kids she has now plus any more she might collect, I really hope I'm wrong, but...I just wonder.

It just goes to show that looks only go so far.

Some relationships come and go, but your kids are always your kids.

That's the thing though. She *APPEARS* to be a wonderful mother. But we don't have any idea if she is or not. Buying your kids everything under the sun doesn't make you a good mother. Toting them around for photographers to constantly take their pictures (and yours, so you look like a good mom) does not make someone a good parent. Personally I hate people who use their kids as PR tools for themselves.

She might be a great parent. But we don't know that.

Then again, according to a joke I read this morning, the as yet unborn child has been signed to a $10 million modeling contract.

:confused: No offense to you DA, but that's not a very funny joke. :p

Is she really toting her kids around for good PR or can it be a case of a mother just trying to be out with her children while the paparazzi follows them around like a pack of rabid dogs?

The point is that we don't know. So people saying "oh she's such a great mother," we have no idea if she is or isn't. She could be a great mom or a terrible one.

Basically. Unlike Michael Jackson, I've never seen photos of her dangling her kids in front of cameras. The photos I've seen look like situations of her/them minding their own business or at least trying to.
